Magnolia-licious Summer Blog Hop!

Hey Magnolia Friends!
 
Today is the Summer Magnolia-licious Blog Hop!
If you have come from my buddy Angela's Blog you are on the right track! If not you may want to start on the Magnolia-licious Blog so you can start from the beginning. Remember to comment on on all the blogs to be entered into the prize giveaway!
 
I have made a Summer Memories tin. So all of our ticket stubs/ notes/ invitations etc. will go in this tin from our family activites we do throughout the Summer. Like a little keepsake box. I think I'll start doing this for my kids, For each school year too. I want to teach them early to preserve memories. I sure wish I had things to look back at.
 
Well, your next stop along the hop is the lovely Candy.
Enjoy the hop!

How adorable is this little memory canister. Loving these papers you girls have used, the ruffles and of course that sweet precious Tilda is a perfect choice for writing summer memories.

I love your Summer Memories tin! It is just too cute. I love the colors you chose. The ribbon adds that perfect bit of texture, too! Tilda is adorable. This is the first time I've seen her inked up. I love that little stamp now that I've seen her! Love the words you added as well! You did a fabulous job!

XO,

Oh Mindy I love it!
The box is so pretty as is Tilda.
I never thought of doing this and yet years ago my husband used to build 'memory boxes' for me to paint and sell.
This is a fantastic idea and I am sure your children would love their own for the school year too :o)
Big Hugs, Candy
